Acute kidney injury in elderly patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation: early versus late onset.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a severe complication in critical patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (MV). However, AKI which occurs in the first 48 h after MV (early AKI) and thus likely associated with the MV settings is probably different from AKI occurring following 48 h (late AKI). This study is aimed at exploring the incidence of early and late AKI in elderly patients receiving MV and identifying their different risk factors and outcomes.

Methods

This retrospective, observational, multicenter cohort study consecutively included 3271 elderly patients (≥ 75 years) receiving invasive MV at four medical centers of Chinese PLA General Hospital from 2008 to 2020. The diagnosis of AKI was made following the 2012 KDIGO criteria and categorized into earl
